Hi,

I'm currently running Java 6 RC on my workstation and could not run Softsqueeze due to an IllegalArgumentException:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: defaultCloseOperation must be one of: DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE, HIDE_ON_CLOSE, or DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE
	at javax.swing.JDialog.setDefaultCloseOperation(JDialog.java:705)
	at org.titmuss.softsqueeze.skin.SkinWindow.createContainer(SkinWindow.java:150)
	at org.titmuss.softsqueeze.skin.Skin.<init>(Skin.java:99)
	at org.titmuss.softsqueeze.Softsqueeze.openSkins(Softsqueeze.java:254)
	at org.titmuss.softsqueeze.Softsqueeze.<init>(Softsqueeze.java:155)
	at org.titmuss.softsqueeze.Softsqueeze.<init>(Softsqueeze.java:110)
	at org.titmuss.softsqueeze.Softsqueeze.main(Softsqueeze.java:493)
	at org.titmuss.softsqueeze.Application.main(Application.java:55)

After getting the code I found out that EXIT_ON_CLOSE (the constant which is being set) was settable but being ignored on Java versions prior to 1.6.0 but now results in the above exception. EXIT_ON_CLOSE is still useable and supported on JFrames but not on JDialogs.

See these bugs in the Java Bugs Database:

As EXIT_ON_CLOSE on JDialogs did not have any effect in earlier java versions I propose a simple patch to make live for people using Java 6 (and of course especially me) a lot easier :)

The patch follows. It also contains a few changed project settings so Softsqueeze could be run from Eclipse without any tweaking :)

Hope it helps
